Welcome to the Autism and Motherhood Project!

We are researchers from the University of Cambridge who are working in partnership with women with an autism spectrum condition (ASC) to understand how autism affects the experience of motherhood.

Together, we have developed a questionnaire to assess the issues faced by mothers with an autism spectrum condition. In order to know whether these issues are unique to mothers with ASC, we need mothers with and without an ASC to participate. This is the first study to ever consider the experience of motherhood in the context of autism, and we hope you will take part.
